I liked This bottle better than the first but still consider this much less wine that other wines in the $10 price range. I did not see as much minerality in this bottle as the first. IT was a good wine but not in a style that is a favorite. The color indicates big fruit but the body in the mouth is light-medium.

I agree with the below reviews about having a mineral quality - overall I just felt like there was something off -- possibly a vegetal aspect. The finish was just off.

Color: opaque purple, plum
Nose: black spices, earthiness, black currant
Flavor: super ripe blackberry, cocoa-candied cherry, clove
Mouthfeel: luscious, round, juicy
Drink this now. A big, chewy fruit bomb

Earth, meaty spice aromas on opening. Blackberry notes came out after about an hour open.
A little jammy flavor but balanced with tannins. Overall, decent wine but nothing special.

Good color, good cab cherry nose and taste. Smooth with good legs. Overall very satisfying.
